>> barack obama's first inauguration was the biggest event in d.c. history, drawing 1.8 million people and costing approximately $130 million, according to public records. now, private donations picked up about $50 million of that. leaving taxpayers with a tab of about $80 million. so, what are we looking at this time? let's start with one of the big ticket items which is security. of course the secret service will be in charge once again, but they need a lot of help because look at all the territory they have to put under hard protection from way down here by the washington monument and the white house to way up by the capitol and there's some special needs in that area. for example, think about the parade route where the president will travel up pennsylvania avenue, passing between tens of thousands of people and probably walking part of the way. so 10,000 active military and national guard troops were used last time joined by another 8,000 police officers from 56 agencies. no one will tell us how much this cost for security reasons. for jet fighte
